What is Project 2025?
Project 2025 is making more headlines every day.
It is a 900-page playbook for how Republicans should overhaul the government drawn up by the Heritage Foundation, a conservative think-tank. It includes:
A conservative policy agenda
A playbook for a Republican president’s first 180 days
Plans to remake the federal workforce (a database of vetted conservatives to hire and an online course to train them)
While some advisors and staffers from the Trump Administration contributed to its creation, former President Trump himself says he “knows nothing” about Project 2025 and called some of the proposals “ridiculous and abysmal.”
Democrats are sounding the alarm over what they call extreme positions in Project 2025, and the Biden Campaign began running ads highlighting the project’s connections to former President Trump, saying it would give him “limitless power over our daily lives.”

Verse to consider when two groups of people fight about how our nation should be run (so, like, every day) … “Nations rage, kingdoms topple; the earth melts when he lifts his voice… ‘Stop fighting, and know that I am God, exalted among the nations, exalted on the earth.’ The Lord of Armies is with us; the God of Jacob is our stronghold.”
Psalm 46:6, 10-11 (CSB) (read full passage)
